Over Roofing to a Factory Office Roof in Newhaven, East Sussex

During January and February 2020, we carried out an over-roofing to a factory/office roof in Newhaven, East Sussex.

The 20 no. old rooflights situated over the factory area were removed. They were replaced with new, translucent rooflights to let additional natural light into the factory. The 8 no. rooflights over the office area weren’t required and so were covered over.

New single skin plastisol coated steel sheeting was fixed onto new spacer purlins that were fitted over the old roof. New matching profile translucent sheets were fitted over the previously replaced rooflights.

New 200mm thickness fibreglass insulation was laid between the 2 no. roofs to help regulate the temperature within the building.

The roof was finished off with new purpose manufactured contrasting coloured steel flashings.
